Anthony B. Wolbarst and William R. Hendee: The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering and NIH Grant Process: An Overview
A researcher seeking a National Institutes of Health grant needs an outstanding new idea, a willingness to put considerable time and effort into generating an excellent application, and perhaps the perseverance to rethink and polish the presentation while responding constructively to the criticism from the Scientific Review Group.

Breast Imaging:

Malcolm K. Sydnor, John D. Wilson, Tarek A. Hijaz, H. Davis Massey, and Ellen S. Shaw de Paredes: Underestimation of the Presence of Breast Carcinoma in Papillary Lesions Initially Diagnosed at Core-Needle Biopsy
We believe benign papillomas may be followed up mammographically if the mammographic findings are considered concordant with the pathologic findings; because of the high association with malignancy, the diagnosis of an atypical papilloma at core biopsy should prompt excision for definitive diagnosis.
